Start Your Ruby Podcast Today! No Experience Required
summary
Remote Ruby begins as a failed online meetup and turns into a podcast that proves a simple rule works: start simple — record on Google Hangouts or Zoom, extract audio, later migrate to Transistor for RSS and analytics, then adopt Zencastr local MP3s for better quality. Consistency and guest interviews drive growth: 13 of 16 early episodes use guests, sponsors and pro editing arrive, and the show hits almost 100,000 downloads in 2021, so the approach scales.
